It’s about instilling the idea that<br />

YOU are the only person who<br />

can look after your body, fuel it<br />

correctly and get it moving.<br />

What advice can you give to<br />

the next generation to inspire<br />

them to live life to the full?<br />

The best thing we can do for our<br />

children is to get outside and<br />

have an adventure with them as<br />

it brings us closer to our children<br />

in a way that computer games<br />

and TV can’t. The outdoors and<br />

an adventure shared, gives kids a<br />

confidence and pride that money<br />

cannot buy. Children who get to<br />

spend their afternoons running<br />

about and playing games sleep<br />

better, concentrate harder and<br />

work better with each other. So<br />

it’s about leading by example.<br />

As the youngest Chief Scout<br />

what did this prestigious role<br />

enable you to do?<br />

Being named Chief Scout was<br />

one of the greatest honours<br />

in my life and it’s the most<br />

unbelievable privilege to be part<br />

of such an inspiring worldwide<br />

force for good. My main goal is<br />

to encourage those who might<br />

not normally get the chance, to<br />

get out there, go wild and build<br />

their own adventures! The Scouts<br />

does that like no other youth<br />

organization and it inspires<br />

great life values and life-long<br />

friendships.<br />

What was the hardest<br />

lesson you have learnt<br />

from being in the SAS?<br />

When I was serving with<br />

the SAS, I fractured T8<br />

T10 and T12 vertebrae in a<br />

freefall parachuting accident<br />
